Andrew Vaughn Worth a Waiver-Wire Pickup Now That he's Healthy
Milwaukee Brewers first baseman/designated hitter Andrew Vaughn missed all of April due to a hand injury, but he's swinging the bat well since his return and is only rostered in 31% of Yahoo leagues at the moment. Vaughn shares playing time at first base and DH with Jake Bauers, but he should see more regular playing time with outfielder/DH Christian Yelich (back) potentially landing on the injured list. The 28-year-old former third overall pick out of Cal Berkeley in 2019 by the Chicago White Sox flipped a switch late last year when he was acquired from the White Sox, hitting .308/.375/.493 with an .869 OPS, nine homers, 46 RBI, and 26 runs scored in 64 games in Milwaukee. Since returning from his hand injury this year, he has gone 7-for-24 (.292) at the plate with a homer, two doubles, five RBI, and five runs scored across 30 plate appearances. It's a small sample size, but Vaughn certainly has more fantasy upside as a corner infield/utility option for fantasy managers in Milwaukee. Give him a look.
